I've been lazy and I'm sorry! I missed all of last week. I kept telling myself to do it, to just write, and I never did. I've been incredibly tired because I haven't been sleeping very well. Then I'm tired the next day and take a much longer nap than needed, which then equals to me not being tired when it's time for bed. So, I stay up, watching something, read something, or just toss and turn throughout the night. It's awful. Last night, I did manage to go to bed at 10pm and, I believe, fell right to sleep. I feel like a human being this morning.
I think I forgot to mention that I'm an aunt of twin, identical baby girls! We finally got to meet them yesterday. Too precious and so tiny. They're probably about the weight, maybe a tiny bit more, as Baby Girl was when she was first born. Around 6 lbs. 10 oz. I just don't remember her feeling so small. After holding one of them - I really never knew who I was holding - I picked up Baby Girl and she felt like a five year old in my hands. Perspective is a silly thing.
It was weird how automatic it was helping to take care of them during the day. I didn't hand the baby - we'll call her Baby Twin - off when she started crying. If a diaper change was needed I did it without thinking twice. Before Baby Girl came into my life the longest I had ever held a baby was probably under five minutes. I guess, just as a mom, you just do. You just do what needs to be done because that little baby deserves nothing but all the care and love in the world.
